      [S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accesses · 050eef36
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
      decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
      IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
      table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
      users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
      found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
      Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
      flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
      entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
      progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
      logic independent from the mm_users field.
